Royal Copenhagen issued a series of 3.25" diameter
plaquettes (small plaques) which mostly feature scenes of Denmark. They
are made of faience (earthenware) rather than porcelain, and transfer printed
in traditional Copenhagen blue and white. They have a pierced foot for
hanging, and most are marked with the series number (2010) and the
number of the scene on that particular plaquette.
These plaquettes are no longer disctributed in
the US; their last US List Price was $15 each. Like all Royal Copenhagen
faience, the earlier plaquettes bear the Royal Copenhagen modified beehive mark
(actually a capital "A" with the cross
stroke made up of three wavy lines); after 1969, all Royal Copenhagen faience
carried the same mark as their porcelain: a crown surrounded by the words
"Royal Copenhagen Denmark".

A small hard-cover book
(8.75" by 5.5") entitled "The Danish Royal Copenhagen
Plaquettes: 2010 Series" was written by Earl Nelson Newman and
privately printed in 1973. It contains pictures and descriptions of
plaquettes #1 through #85, plus the special collections that were issued
featuring six American Presidents, six zoo animals, and six antique autos.
I have limited quantities of the book available for sale at $10
each in like-new conditon. Additional scenes
have been issued since then, and an unknown number of scenes were issued and
discontinued before the current numbering system began. Among those was a
special issue for the 1939 New York World's Fair, which I would like to
purchase if anyone has one for sale. Any other information about older
(or newer) plaquettes would be appreciated.

Royal Copenhagen also issued a series of small square
porcelain plates (small plaques) just over 3.25" across which also
feature scenes of Denmark. They are made of porcelain, and transfer
printed in traditional Copenhagen blue and white. They have a pierced
foot for hanging, and most are marked with the series number (985) and
the number of the scene on that particular plate.
These are listed at the bottom of these page, along with a few similar
ones from series number 708 (or 5708) made byBing and Grondahl.

I believe that there are 25
Hans Christian Andersen plaquettes like the ones above, issued in 1981 and dsitributed in the US by Franklin Mint. I have almost
all of them in stock.
